The whole punchline of the original Wolverine/Honey Badger post.. don’t mess with farm boys.

That’s what the BLM/Antifa turd stabbers Keep forgetting when they blabber their gums about “coming out to the country.”

We walk up to bears and kick them out of our yards. We know who is boss in the woods, too.

I’ve not kicked a bear but I have offered a stern sounding rebuke.
 
Timber wolf and gray wolf is the same species the other US wolf species is the Red wolf.
I'll admit, I'm guilty of loosely using the term, Gray wolf as a general term, but as we get specific -
Red wolf and eastern wolf arose by mixing with coyotes. (see bottom chart) Interesting part is how the charts show different ranges on Red Wolf.

North American Gray wolf (species) has lots of subspecies. Canadian Valley wolf and timber wolf might be the part of the same 'species'. Timber wolf was bigger than their northern Canadian Cousin.
The Timber Wolf (classified as the Southern Rocky Mtn Wolf) was hunted to extinction in 1935. link This wolf was classified as a species of Gray wolf in 1937.
As far as I know (at one time), all wolves were extinct in the lower 48, due to a successful hunting and trapping program carried out by the US Government; until the Mexican wolf came up from Mexico and the Canadian wolf was brought down to the US. (red wolf must of done a good job hiding out in the swamps)
Environmentalists' try to muddy the water by saying they are the same, like we are related to monkeys, but there was a size and color difference. Rocky Mtn timber wolf was darker and BIGGER.
The INTRODUCTION of the Mackenzie Valley wolf (which is commonly called the Gray Wolf) into the lower 48 was just that; and INTRODUCTION, bringing in a new wolf that was NOT there before. Environmentalists try to say, it was just bringing back wolves, in fact, it was introducing a new SUB-species of wolf.
Similar to Humans, and how Asians, Africans, Europeans are all humans, but each has a physical characteristic.
Not sure who drew up the map below, but I used it to show the different types of 'wolves'.

We eradicated them for a reason……..they are one of a very small group of predators that will kill for fun………..(by the way we are in that group}
When they are in the food chain we are not at the top……

Not to take away from the motivational thread.
But, once a wolf figures out they can kill a 1100 lb steer in a fenced pasture vs chasing an elk, well, we know what happens.
Look at what happened in Yellowstone. Lots of elk, now how many? If 'over population' was a problem, all the Gov would have to do was issue a few hunting permits. Done.

One of the holy grail's of automotive history...

One of these was restored by Nick Mason who later gifted it to the Beaulieu automobile collection. 1.5L Supercharged BRM V-16 engine from the early 1950's. Not the most reliable, but oh that sound... Incredible power out of insane RPM's. 93cc's per cylinder. That's a bore and stroke of 1.95" x 1.9" making 600 HP at 12,000 RPM.

Listen to it at full song... I think this audio track was recorded by Nick Mason for his book "Into the Red."



Watch it move...



If that is not incredible engineering... in 1953. With sliderules... I don't know what is!

Cheers,

I'd like to put a few of the antifa fags in my corral with a dozen or so cows and see how they make out.
It's kinda fun when you get one heading towards the chute and it decides that it's not going to cooperate and turns around on you.
Only if you have a herd like the farm my brother worked on in high school. He had a bunch of Brahma/Angus and other crazy/Angus cross cattle. It's bad when the cows look at you like some of the women in the motivational pic page. Like do i gore you then trample or trample then gore. You look I the eye and see pure cra,y.

Can't find a satisfactory sound clip....but Porsche 917-30.
1580 horse flat 12 cyl with (I think) 4 turbos ?
The sound is incredible, I've heard them in person.....but seems they are worth too much money for anyone to actually drive one as it was meant to be driven.
